Not just proud of Mr. Foda--proud of Creative Minds for its movie star-like celebration graphic! (I thought for a minute they'd made a movie about it all!)

Using a calculator isn’t cheating.
Using spellcheck isn’t cheating.
Using Google isn’t cheating.
Using audiobooks isn’t cheating.
Using #ChatGPT isn’t cheating.
Let’s stop trying to catch kids cheating and start creating authentic assignments they won’t want to cheat on.
A great evening with a great program, great students, and great mentors!
See the news story-tinyurl.com/bdcrcj4b- on the One World website about how Capital One Cafe Ambassadors helped One World students find their voice last month in downtown DC. Thank you, Phoebe, Tyrik, and Capital One! @capitalone @capitalonenews #OneWorldDifference
Loved this @edutopia article about building peer-to-peer connections in class. Not too late to do it for second semester! edutopia.org/article/positiv…
Share your games and for virtual learning, pls! I need to party like it's 2020. (Whiteboard pictionary, paste in a GIF to show your reaction....stuffs like that.)
So curious to know what fellow ELA types think about the incursion of ChatGPT. I was having similar thoughts watching a Grammarly ad. Reactionary hand-wringing seems futile, so what can we learn, and how can we get ahead of this? theatlantic.com/technology/a…

You are all Queen Bees in our hearts, but we are sick of management’s games. Stand with us on the digital picket line!
